No birds ringed by the ringing group - February 2021

 A combination of cold weather and lockdown meant that no birds were ringed this month. There were a few sightings of ringed birds, including a near-20-year-old Polish Black-headed Gull and two sibling Mute Swans from Bedfont near Staines.

The Danish Black-headed Gull was seen again on 7th and details of a Polish Black-headed Gull (below) on 18th were received, approaching 20 years since it was ringed as a pullus.
